Ji Tian will definitely not come back. These people are holding back their energy because they want one hundred thousand taels of silver.
Not giving?
Not if they really intend to inspect it.
Jia Zheng is a shameless person, how can he be treated like this?
Seeing Baoyu coming over again, Jia Zheng immediately yelled: "Incompetent idiot! What did you say when I asked you to pass the message to the old lady? What are you doing here now?"
Baoyu showed no fear and only lowered his head slightly: "The old lady has fainted. How can I bother the old lady again? If I go to copy it, I will be disturbed. What if the old lady is good or bad?" With that, he said
He raised his head, looked at Jia Zheng, then looked at Jia She, and then said: "Now there is more than just a house left in the mansion." He then looked at Jia Jing and Jia Zhen: "There is also the garden where relatives are invited. Then
The garden is built between the two mansions. It can be accessed from the west mansion and also from the east mansion. Brother Zhen knows how much the garden cost. Now the garden is discounted to brother Zhen, including one hundred thousand taels.
It makes up for the shortfall in the sacrifice field, and the extra silver makes up for the shortfall in the public school in Xifu..."
In other words, apart from the one hundred thousand taels, the rest was given to Jia She for this room alone.
In this way, it is still a way.
As soon as this idea came up, Jia Zheng was overjoyed: He felt that Baoyu's idea was to defeat the opponent's army. It was a garden built for the empress. How many of them dared to take the garden as their own? With this deterrence, even if they slow down
In the past few days, things have been slow and smooth, and there is always a way to resolve this matter.
But Wang Xifeng felt that Baoyu's idea was sinister, so she couldn't help but take another look at Baoyu. Based on her understanding of Jia She and Jia Zhen, there was nothing these two people wouldn't dare to do. Just like now, when the idea of selling the garden came up,
, these two people must be tempted. The East Mansion has always been better off than the West Mansion. First of all, there are fewer masters in the East Mansion and less things to do. That is to say, Jia Zhen spends a lot of time and wine, but the energy of the time and wine is on a par with Jia She. But it can be placed in the West Mansion.
Here, Jia She's expenses are not the most. The most are the expenses that Jia Zheng spends on raising Qing guests and being elegant, which are the expenses that have to be sent to the palace every month to give to the empress. Even the old lady's food and drink are not considered as expenses.
At most. Besides, which master here in the West Mansion is not the master? Who can be neglected? When there are more masters, the expenses will naturally be large. But what about the East Mansion? How much money can Brother Rong get from his father?
The money in the house was either rewarded casually by Lian Er, or was brought from below by the gods and ghosts. Favors came in and out, but the foundation of the house remained unchanged. As for Youshi, she was nothing more than a housewife.
She is just a girl with a key. She has taken out all her body. Do you have a thousand taels? She is just a grandma. Besides, she doesn’t have much dowry money, and her life is tight. And Jia Zhen is a
He will enjoy love and romance. Now that he has such a good place to have fun and has money in his hand, how can he not be tempted? And Jia She has always had little money with him, and now he has lost Yuanzi's money.
, except for the one hundred thousand taels, all of it will be subsidized to the government, which will naturally compensate him. He is eager to sell it out.
But in this way, the originally close relationship will be gone in an instant. Jia She wants to ask for more, but Jia Zhen is unwilling to give more. These two back and forth quarrels have hurt feelings.
Isn’t this a bad idea?
There are also those tribesmen who follow Jia Zhen. Jia Zhen will definitely not divide the one hundred thousand taels of silver. He is also a wild goose who plucks his hair. Those tribesmen have long been red-eyed. If this really happens, they
Are you willing to give up?
Wang Xifeng gently tugged on Jia Lian's sleeve, feeling that it would be really bad to stay in this place.
Jia Lian understood, stood up and whispered to Jia She: "Father will stay here first, and son will go back with his wife first... The old lady fainted, I helped call the imperial doctor, and asked Feng Yatou to keep an eye on..."
It means keeping an eye on Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang to prevent them from causing trouble.
When these words were said, Jia She agreed first and had to watch, and then hurriedly said: "Go! Go quickly! Don't worry about anything, it doesn't matter to the old lady. You two, hurry up and wait for me."
After hearing this, the couple ran away immediately.
Jia She then asked Jia Zhen with a smile on his face: "Eldest nephew, if our yard is given to you... can you eat it? If you don't want it, we will take it out. Of course, occupying it
How much land I have acquired from you, how many shares will be calculated for you, and then we will all share the money together." Then he sighed: "I take it for granted, it cost a million taels to build this garden, how can you afford such money now?
A lot of money comes…”
"Uncle..." Jia Zhen said hurriedly: "How much money did it cost to build it, and how much money do we have to sell it for now? This garden is also part of my family. Even if it is sold for takeout, I dare say it won't be sold for that much money.
That's it, two hundred thousand taels, I'll take it. We'll get the money and goods right away."
Jia She immediately stopped smiling: "My nephew, I don't want to take advantage of the situation like this! Two hundred thousand taels? There is no such thing! So, since you can't afford the price, I think so, let's find someone to take out the food, south.
All the salt merchants in the world are rich, and that’s them.”
"Uncle, I own half of this garden. If I don't sell my half, you can't sell the remaining half either. So, two hundred and fifty thousand taels... Don't forget, I gave the land to build the garden.
I also paid 100,000 taels of silver, and I paid 250,000 taels for the remaining half, which is not considered a shortfall."
"Three hundred thousand taels!" Jia She gritted his teeth and gave the price: "Bring it three hundred thousand taels, and we can create a written record now."
Jia Zhen laughed: "Okay! The extra 50,000 taels, even if the nephew honors his uncle, is only 300,000 taels."
Then he turned around and went out, taking 200,000 taels: "I will directly deduct the 100,000 taels of silver for the field sacrifice. Now, the matter of the field sacrifice has nothing to do with Xifuli anymore. This is the remaining 200,000 taels.
Two, please take them."
Jia She took the banknote and looked at it carefully, as if he was afraid of fooling him with a fake one.
But they didn't realize that the fourth master whispered something to Jia Xia, and then a sarcastic smile flashed in Jia Xia's eyes and he left quickly.
Jia Zhengqi's hands trembled: "That's the garden built for my mother-in-law! It contains not only money from our Jia family, but also flowers and trees given by brothers Yu and Heng, stones from the Lin family, and money added by the Xue family.
, there is the Wang family... there is the Shi family... there is..."
Jia She neatly put the money into his arms, and regardless of whether the fourth master was still there, he said: "Whoever they gave it to is going to ask for it. The money was not handed to me, do you want me to acknowledge the account?"
Don’t even think about it!”
But obviously, the money in his arms was not warm. Someone from the Ministry of Household Affairs came to find the heads of the East and West Houses.
Jia Jing raised his eyelids and looked at the Fourth Master, nodding to the Fourth Master to express his gratitude.
Now that the debtor came, he took advantage of the opportunity to swindle all the money and quickly paid the debt, which was regarded as a crime.
Jia She didn't even know that his family still owed a debt of 380,000 taels of silver. The 200,000 taels in his hand now are not warm enough. No, it is not even enough to hand it over to others. He still owes 180,000 taels.
2. The person from the Household Department said: "Since you can easily take out 200,000 taels from your pocket, I think you can get the 180,000 taels together tomorrow. Then come back early tomorrow morning
Take the 180,000 taels."
As for the Ningguo Mansion, it actually owed no less than the Rongguo Mansion, and owed as much as 360,000.
The family has already spent 200,000 taels before. Where can we get another 360,000 taels?
Jia Jing said: "If you don't have money, use your property to pay off your debts." After all, the garden was owned by the imperial concubine, so if you were asked to go in and ruin it, don't you think your crime is not serious? Fortunately, Brother Heng called the Ministry of Household Affairs.
This person avoided a sin and paid off his debt at the same time. "Didn't I just buy this garden..."
"It's worth 300,000 taels." Jia Zhen said with a look on her face: "Use this to pay off the debt, and we'll get another 60,000 taels."
"Wait a minute." The person didn't recognize the price: "Can the price count for the things your family gives to your family? You can pay it to the Ministry of Household Affairs, but the price has to be calculated separately."
As a result, they stopped looking at the garden, saying they were afraid of disturbing the women. They looked very polite and polite, and then said: "Two hundred thousand taels! It's worth two hundred thousand taels."
Jia Zhenhao wanted to defend herself, but she was told, "You didn't pay two hundred thousand taels in the first place. Later, you increased the price to honor your uncle. That's not the price of the garden. We can't let us accept this account."
Jia Zhen was frightened, even others knew what she had said before.
He no longer dared to speak, he had to eat even if he suffered a loss, and he had to eat even if he didn't eat. Yuanzi had paid the Ningguo Mansion's debt of 200,000 taels, which meant that he had to pay another 160,000 taels. And he still owed the clan members
One hundred thousand taels of silver for the field sacrifice.
People also said that the two families with 160,000 yuan will come to pick them up early tomorrow morning.
After saying that, Shi Shiran left.
The fourth master glanced at Jia Yun. Jia Yun understood and pretended to go to serve tea. However, when passing by Jia Qin and others, he muttered in a low voice: "How can you get so much silver? It seems that the clan's one hundred thousand taels
It’s going to be ruined.”
When Jia Qin heard this, he immediately became anxious and said hurriedly: "We won't delay the clan leader today. The clan leader has important matters to attend to. Let's just divide the one hundred thousand taels and disperse them separately. Divide the sects into different sects.
It's just a matter of becoming a clan and not causing any more trouble to the clan."
Those who were willing to follow Ning Guo Mansion in the past, now look at it, Ning Guo Mansion is nothing more than that. Then it is better for each of them to take the money and quickly find a way out for themselves.
Therefore, the tribesmen who had previously united around Jia Zhen stretched out their hands one by one, with only one intention: take the money and share it with us.
Jia Jing felt relieved: It's better to break up! It's better to break up! Only when they are all broken up can they all have a way to survive.
So he scolded Jia Zhen: "Take the money! When a grown man speaks, he spits and nails."
Jia Zhen didn't dare not listen. When she took the silver and handed it over, she gritted her teeth. She looked at Jia Qin and others with eyes that seemed to be filled with poison. His words seemed to be squeezed out from between her teeth: "But you have to take it.
Don’t wait until you get out the door and get robbed again.”
It was originally meant to be a scare, but who knew that the people from Jinling's hometown would take it seriously. They couldn't trust these people, so they just clamored about how the division must be explained clearly, and they had to divide it now, right here.
So he called the people from the bank and took the scattered silver notes of one hundred thousand taels, which were divided according to the heads of the men in the clan. It was not until the evening that the division was completed.
With so many people coming and going, the farce in the Jia family has long been known to everyone in the capital.
Now that everyone has received money, some go off to live and drink, while others huddle around the two houses, not daring to go far at night for fear of encountering any unexpected events. They just wait for dawn tomorrow, change their outfits, and then go home without mentioning it.
The fourth master came back quite late. He really waited for it to be over before he came back. He learned things from Lin Yutong.
"Now that they are scattered, it is better than the outcome of the tree falling and the hozen being dispersed." If these tribesmen have a right heart, they can take advantage of the clan's brand to buy properties with money, and they can be considered to be able to stand on their own feet.
As for those who don't live up to expectations, they really deserve to lose their family fortune, lose their livelihood, and live on the streets to starve and freeze to death.
After watching the fourth master eat, Lin Yutong asked him to wash up, but the fourth master refused: "I can't stay at home at night, so I'd better go to Prince Zhongshun's Mansion for a while. I happened to have something important to say to him. Those two
The government doesn't want to return the remaining silver to the Ministry of Revenue, so it must be found. Later, I will ask an imperial doctor to come and stay at home. I just say that you are tired today and have fetal force, so no one can see you."
It was as if the fourth master had predicted that everyone in both houses was planning on the fourth master.
Jia She went back and forced Jia Zheng: "No matter what, you have to find this money. Your wife is in charge of the house and has lost all the money. Now you owe money to the treasury and you have to pay it back, but you just sit back and watch the Holy Lord."
It makes no sense for us, my father and my son, to bear the burden of the crime. I was forced to go to the Yamen and have a good talk. I am not afraid of embarrassment. If you are not afraid of embarrassment to the empress, then we will make a fuss like this...
"
Mrs. Xing also followed up and said: "Where can we get 180,000 taels of silver? You are usually in charge, but now when something goes wrong, we are asked to carry it. This doesn't give us a way to survive, isn't it because we have to make trouble?"
"I'm not afraid of embarrassment..." After saying that, he glanced at Wang Xifeng again. Now he felt particularly pleasing to Wang Xifeng, but he also felt that she was too stupid: "You too, what's the use of risking your life if something goes wrong?"
?In those years when you were the head of the family, you were sincere and only cared about your uncle and aunt. Now I beg your aunt, for the sake of the family, please let go and save a few for us.
good."
Wang Xifeng was in a state of embarrassment, with a pale face and red eyes from crying. She had lowered her head and choked with sobs, but now she seemed to be unable to bear the words and staggered down.
Ping'er helped him support him and said to Jia Lian: "Grandma didn't come during the holiday this month."
Jia Lian didn't care whether this was true or not, and said hurriedly: "Ask someone to help your master go back. The imperial doctor hasn't left yet, so I'll call him over and have a look."
Jia She was more and more satisfied with this daughter-in-law, she was very discerning. Knowing that her status was embarrassing, he just avoided her. He was angrily and asked Jia Zheng: "Do you want to take this money or not..."
Jia Zheng looked at Mrs. Wang: "What did you say?" His eyes were already extremely angry.
How could Mrs. Wang get out 180,000 taels? There was only a little silver and a few boxes of things left, which were reserved for Baoyu to get married. She cried and complained: "I really have no money. I can't pawn the dowry. How much can I collect?"
Qianliang. How about taking it slow? I'll find the Xue family again..."
Mrs.
He Xianlong is no longer at Jia's house."
Mrs. Wang choked, but she didn't know what it meant: the Xue family was far away from their own home.
She said: "Nowadays, such money is really hard to come by. Otherwise, we can ask Tong Yatou and his wife to borrow money or ask Brother Heng to go and tell the Ministry of Household Affairs..."
Jia Zheng nodded: "Why did you forget this incident?"
Jia She didn't say anything. To be honest, he didn't want to pay back the money. As long as the other party can make it clear, the family can squeeze out the second room bit by bit, and the money will still fall into his hands. Why not?
Why? As for the court's money, leave it to Lian'er and his wife to find a way to get rid of it. They have quite a lot of money hidden away.
As a result, before Lin Yutong fell asleep, someone came to report that someone from the Jia family was here.
There is something going on in the family today, and there is something about celebrating spring. Jia Xia and his wife are here. Someone is coming, and Jia Xia is here to receive them.
There was a letter from Jia Zheng over there. There were two things: one was to see if I could borrow some silver, and the other was that I wanted to pay back part of it first, so I asked this person to say hello to the Ministry of Revenue first.
Jia Xia remembered her brother's instructions before leaving, and couldn't help but sigh. Her brother really saw through these people, and he had expected them.
He didn't say anything else, he just handed over a bunch of things.
The visitor was Jia Zheng's guest. When he saw this thing, he took it first and said, "I wonder what this is..."
"Take a look, sir." Jia Xia said and sighed: "It's not that I don't want to help, I really don't know how to help. My sister-in-law just asked someone to do it from the Yamen today..."
It's a box of various deeds, but the name is not Jia Heng, but Jia Yao.
Seeing that the other party was puzzled, Jia Xia said, "Go back and reply to Master Zheng. He knows about this. Before I got married that day, my brother and sister-in-law divided the family property into three equal parts. One part was given to me and the other to the little one."
The younger sister made the dowry. You know, the younger sister told Mr. Zhang that the wedding will be in March next year. Now that the dowry list has been sent, this is the part that cannot be touched. Only the elder brother’s share is left in the family.
, but unfortunately, the fourth girl in the house was adopted into my house by Mr. Jing's decision. My brother and sister-in-law could not say favoritism, so they transferred all the share originally left to them to the name of the fourth girl. In the future, they will be given to the fourth girl as a dowry.
The girl was given as a dowry. The brother said that since he was an official and the eldest brother, he could still earn money from the family business in the future, so he really only left a small village, and the rest was his sister-in-law's dowry. Mr. Zheng wanted to borrow money.
For a moment, I really couldn’t think of where my brother could get money from. Even if he wanted to say hello to the Ministry of Household Affairs, I’m afraid he can’t do it now. My brother was called away by King Zhongshun. I don’t know whether he entered the palace or went to the palace garden outside the city.
It's impossible to send a message to that place even if you want to. Moreover, if you leave, you may be able to come back tomorrow, but you may not be able to come back in three, five, or ten days. I'm afraid it may be too late."
The man was startled. Before the people here were sent away, someone from Ningguo Mansion also came. Jia Xia still said the same thing. The people in Ningguo Mansion were even more embarrassed. The fourth girl was Master Zhen.
As for his biological sister, he took his adopted sister as his biological sister and gave him such a generous dowry. Is his brother embarrassed to say he misappropriated it?
Not only can't they do it, but they have to help drive away the people in Rongguo Mansion!
Not only did this man rush the person away neatly, but he also expressed his gratitude to Jia Zhen when he went back: "...it shows that the friendship between us there is still very strong, and we treat the girl as if we were close to her."
Jia Zhen nodded repeatedly after hearing this, "That's fine." She turned around and said to her father, "You should still be good at treating people. Brother Heng is so kind."
Jia Jing knew that this was to make him feel at ease. The fourth girl would be properly accommodated and she would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life. Therefore, he opened his eyes and looked at Jia Zhen: "The government really can't afford 160,000 taels."
silver?"
Jia Zhen nodded: "It's really impossible to get it out."
Jia Jing understood: "I won't pursue it anymore, and now is not the time to pursue it. Just go and figure it out and see what unmarked things in the house can be used to pay off the debt. Pick up all these things. We don't have a shop.
Yes, but there are still some in the farmhouse, you can take them out and see if they are enough? If you leave two small farms, they will be enough for the whole family."
ah?
Jia Zhen thought that her father would be willing to receive a private housing subsidy, but that’s what he said! It wasn’t a subsidy, but a payment for living expenses. He had a look of pain on his face: “There are only two villagers, and they can’t even feed the servants at home.
…”
"If you can't make a living, sell it. The money you get back can buy two more houses, and your family will be better off." Jia Jing said directly.
Jia Zhen was so angry that she turned her back on him and cursed: "Old fool!"
But it was really helpless.
He thought that he couldn't send someone to borrow money from a place like Beijing Prince's Palace and Nan'an Prince's Palace first, but as soon as he started to move again, he was blocked by a strong man who flashed out of the door. He was twisted back and knelt in front of his father.
"But you want to go to the palace?" Jia Jing asked.
Jia Zhen looked at the closed door of the ancestral hall and felt a dark and scary feeling. She hurriedly said: "Nowadays, these are the only places where money can be borrowed."
"As expected!" Jia Jing let out a long sigh, "That's it! Since you haven't realized it until now, there is no need to say more." Then he ordered the two people who were escorting Jia Zhen: "Go down and watch.
Well, I’ll release it at this time tomorrow.”
Just when Jia Zhen was about to shout, she was knocked unconscious and carried away.
Jia Jing didn't even raise his eyelids.
Seeing this situation, Jia Rong knelt down and said, "Master...please ask someone to knock out my grandson too...otherwise, if something happens in the house and my grandson doesn't stop me, my father will wake up tomorrow."
I want to break my grandson's legs... If it is a serious matter, my grandson is really afraid that he will die. You can ask someone to knock your grandson unconscious. It is best to be knocked unconscious for three to five to seven days, or ten and a half months...
..." As he said that, he kowtowed his head again and again.
He is clever, and he knows how to look at his eyes. But in the end, he was delayed and his character was bad.
Jia Jing clapped his hands, and two people appeared from the darkness. Jia Rong was knocked unconscious before he could see their faces clearly, and then he knew nothing.
The Rongguo Mansion over there didn't know that such a thing was happening. They just received the news that the previous ideas were not working and would not work.
Mrs. Xing's focus was always different. After hearing this, she asked directly: "Girl Tong really gave all the family's belongings to the fourth girl?" After receiving a positive answer, she sighed: "Girl Tong, look at it.
She’s not stupid! But she is the fourth girl after all, and she is indeed a good person.”
Jia She was so angry that he wanted to scold her again, but in the end he couldn't bear to look at Jia Zheng: "Then what do you think we should do now? I'll wait here for 180,000 taels, and you can deliver it to me before dawn.
.Otherwise, I will go and beat the drum as soon as it breaks. If the Holy One wants to punish someone, I will risk it..."
The implication is that if you are not afraid of your empress being implicated, just waste it.
Jia Zheng was forced to walk away, but he had to find a way.
When Mrs. Wang followed her back, Jia Zheng asked rudely, "Did you change the things?"
She must have replaced some of them, otherwise, how would the family be able to support her expenses now? But she definitely didn’t say that she had replaced all of them. After looking into this matter, she had obvious reasons for others to take advantage of her, so it was definitely not possible. But the money was still there.
He had to get out of the way, so he said: "Lian'er and Feng Yatou, after all, they are different from us. I believe them, but they don't believe us. Such a thing happened! Now...now we are forced to be like this.
... In our family, apart from the old lady, where else can we get money now?"
"You mean to touch the old lady's body and money?" Jia Zheng looked at Mrs. Wang in disbelief.
Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth: "Originally, the old lady said she would leave it to Baoyu, not as a last resort, so how could I have thought of that. Now, this is the only way I can think of. If I have a good idea, just listen to me.
"
Jia Zheng didn't know what he could do. After a long while, he said: "I'm just afraid of touching the old lady's things. The eldest master won't do it. Anyway, they have a share of the old lady's things."
Mrs. Wang gritted her teeth: "If you don't want to, then ask them to go. If you are forced to do nothing, you can't break up! After all, we still have the empress, and they shouldn't bully others too much and make things impossible. What's more,
There is also my brother here..."
Jia Zheng stopped talking. This was indeed his last resort.
Returning to the flower hall in front, they talked to Jia She one by one. Jia Lian pulled Jia She's sleeves, which meant that enough was enough. Jia She thought for a while and said, "It's not impossible to do this, but I also have a condition.
"
"Say it!" Jia Zheng said patiently, as long as this matter can be dealt with, he can do whatever he wants.
Jia She said: "If you take the old lady's things, we will have a share in this. Now, we are using our money to fill your holes, so what I mean... we take the opportunity to divide the family. Old lady
My wife stays, you move out."
Being kicked out by his elder brother, Jia Zheng's face added a bit of shame and annoyance: "I have wanted to move out for a long time, but the old lady was reluctant to part with Baoyu."
"The old lady couldn't bear to leave Baoyu, so she asked Baoyu to live with the old lady." Jia She didn't care about the innocent children. Even if he stayed at home, it would only be an extra bowl of rice. "It's just that the three girls stayed with Huan'er.
It's okay to move down, but you two have to move out."
Jia Zheng's hands were shaking with anger, and it took him a long time to say: "Old lady..."
"You are really filial. You just come to greet the old lady every day." Jia She said again, blocking Jia Zheng's words. Then he said: "Besides, touching the old lady's belongings is not yours."
Idea. Wait until the old lady wakes up and asks..."
"I'll move!" Just after Jia Zheng said this, he saw Jia Lian coming over with pens, inks, paper and inkstones.
When a family is divided, it still needs to be established in writing. Their respective industries, etc., must be clearly written down.
Jia Zheng wrote it in one breath and established the document of separation of the family. Then the matter was settled. If we don't move today, we will eventually move tomorrow.
Then overnight, we took the keys and sorted out the old lady's belongings. I originally thought that the old lady was too rich, but it turned out that she was full of money. Only then did she collect more than 30,000 taels in cash. There were many properties and shops left.
In Jinling, if converted into silver taels, it would be less than 100,000 taels. Therefore, there is a shortfall of 40,000 to 50,000 taels.
What was left was some medicinal herbs and spices. I called the pawnbroker all night and realized seven to eight thousand taels. There were also jade materials and pearls and agate jewelry, and I collected more than 30,000 taels.
After gathering it together, it was still not enough. It was only a few thousand taels.
Jia Zhengxin said it was okay, but Jia Sheden couldn't, it had to be in full amount. He asked Jia Zheng to bring two more paintings from his collection to put them in, and that would count.
As soon as it dawned, people from the Ministry of Accounts came as expected. After counting and checking for a long time, they finally cleared up the amount owed.
On the old lady's side, there were only some old cloth materials, clothes given by others in the past, and homely clothes. Even the silver box that usually used to reward people was taken away by Mrs. Xing in the chaos.
.
When Jia Mu woke up, she didn't dare to say anything about it, but if she didn't say it, Mrs.
, said everything.
Jia Mu's eyes darkened and she was about to fall down again. She didn't even look at her property. Her property still belonged to her children and grandchildren. She had paid off her debts and she had done serious business. She didn't need to worry about this. But when the family was separated, "Who
Permitted?"
"It's been divided!" Mrs. Xing said.
"Separating a family does not mean leaving home." Jia's mother made the final decision: "When we separate, each family will pay for their own expenses. As long as I am still alive, the second child and his family will not be allowed to leave home! This is what I say! You go ask your master and see what he says.
Is it accurate? Doesn’t he know how to play the drum? I’ll do it too. Accuse him of being disobedient and unfilial. Don’t look at me. I’m an old woman and I can manipulate you!”
Mrs. Xing was rebuffed and went back to find Wang Xifeng to discuss.
But Wang Xifeng came to see Lin Yutong early. Didn't the fourth master ask Lin Yutong to pretend to have fetal convulsions yesterday? Wang Xifeng hid out by looking at the patient. She hummed and said, "Old lady, please don't let me."
The eldest wife will definitely come to me to discuss how to move out the second bedroom. But am I stupid to do this? The day the second bedroom is in the house, the faster I will move. Once the second bedroom is moved out, just wait and see, eldest
The old man and his wife were not sure what they were going to do to us. Not only did I hide out, but the man in our family also learned the lesson and said that he was sending the official Langguan of the household department to socialize with him. The old man over there didn't think much about it, so he just
Let him go."
This means that with the second wife, the big family can unite and deal with the outside world. Once the second wife is no longer the enemy, the internal conflicts of the family will be exposed. For example, Jia She will definitely press for the money that the couple has hidden secretly.
. It was obvious that the two of them wanted to wait until Jia She was old, confused, and dead before they let the second room go.
There was a lot of turmoil in the Jia family, but from the beginning to the end, people outside thought that the Jia family collapsed because of the family farm matter, and no one doubted the deeper reasons.
Lin Yutong originally thought that this matter had little to do with his family. The biggest advantage was that he was separated from his family because of the branch clan.
Of course, this is a relationship based on etiquette and law. We are not afraid of being implicated if the Jia family is convicted. But it is impossible to say that there will be no relationship at all from now on. As a person, I am the granddaughter of Jia Mu, Jia She and Jia She.
She is Zheng's niece. Moreover, she has been taken in and taken care of by others. If you want to turn your back on her, someone will really stand at the door and scold you.
Therefore, when Wang Xifeng came, Lin Yutong asked her to apologize to Jia Mu, "When things calm down, I will go and see her old man." Then he brought a lot of food to her.
Apart from this, Lin Yutong really doesn't think there is any deeper relationship.
Unexpectedly, a few days later, the emperor issued a decree to reward the fourth master for his contribution to rice farming in the north. In addition to giving the fourth master a hereditary third-generation earl title, the emperor also rewarded the fourth master with the Grand View Garden, which was used by the Jia family to pay off debts and return it to the treasury.
Fourth Master.
Lin Yutong followed the order and felt hard to describe.
The fourth master became Ji Kangbo, and Lin Yutong became the countess.
Seeing Lin Yutong's behavior, Fourth Master even asked: "Don't you want to live in that garden?" I don't know how many people yearn for that garden. Who among the fans of Red Mansions doesn't want to live there? He said: "When it was originally designed, there were openings.
As soon as it is renovated, you can live in it and try it. It will be warm in winter and cool in summer..."
Bah bah bah bah, Lin Yutong knew: "You were thinking about having this garden at the beginning?"
Don’t you want such a nice garden?
Besides, has the man named Wen ever lived in the garden?
no!
It's a pity that I came to a place that many people want to come to, but I haven't even stayed in the most famous Grand View Garden. Are you wrong?
To be honest, do you miss that garden in your heart?
Don’t say you don’t care! I don’t believe you even if you say it!
You can't live in the royal garden this time, but if you can't live in this garden anymore, I'm too incompetent.
Lin Yutong just looked at him and said, "The Emperor is so fond of him, but he has not been promoted or given a title. It turns out that he is waiting here, waiting for the Grand View Garden to be vacated for his family to live in."
Then the fourth master went to find someone from the Ministry of Industry. The garden still needs to be renovated. There is no rush to move in now.
First of all, the doors on both sides have to be sealed. Once this door is sealed, the location of the previous door will have to be moved, and a small part of the scenery will have to be moved and renovated. Also, no matter how nice it is, it is still a garden. There still needs to be a proper yard in front of it.
of.
In the past, the main entrance of Grand View Garden was connected to Jia's house, but now it has become a wall, and the gate opens in other directions. The fourth master chose the direction of Lai's house, which is connected with Lai's house, and occupied that place to build a new gate, front hall and other areas.
The courtyard, like this, is equivalent to the main entrance being door-to-door to the Yu family. It’s closer and more convenient!
The fourth master bought that area at a high price with Yu Liang's help, and now it is easier to manage.
This is really a matter of seeing high-rise buildings rising and falling in the blink of an eye, in just three or two years...
